Recently, one of the major and serious worldly concerns is the limitation of energy resources. Sudan, in specific, confronts a critical crises relatingto fossil fuel resources, and mostly concerning the production of  electricity energy from fired thermal power plants and hydropower. The primary energy supplies in the Sudan are 29% oil and gas, 71% hydropower. In this study, the potentials for renewable energy to generate electricity in the Sudan is analyzes. The results show that, they are many sours of renewable energy in Sudan. The solar energy and wind energy are generating electricity اaround 4.4% and 5.34% respectively. Resulted values of renewable energy potentials are vastly spread all over the country with solar energy potential being the highest. Available lands for solar and wind energy production constitutes 4.4% and 5.34% of the total area of the country.
